We have come to understand that there are two standard distances for testing our vision, near and far, which are commonly associate with reading and driving. These two distances alone are not sufficient when considering good vision function and eye health. Between ‘near-vision and ‘far-vision’ add (computer) screen-distance and television-distance. I recommend when one feels eye-strain frequently change one’s gaze by looking away form the screen through a window to outside the building, apply a drop of eye-lubricant at night and take a natural food supplement bilberry or lutein (my preference). Respectively, they promote circulation to and within the eye and help to filter light.
